Cars Must Carry Property To Qualify for Certificate Owners of passenger cars are not eligible for certificates of war necessity unless the ve hide has Undergone a genuine structural change, reasonably permanent In nature, which makes it likely .that property, rather than passengers, will be carried, . the office of defense transportation said today. Moreover, the owner must es tablish the fact that his business or occupation requires the use of a property-carrying vehicle. rather than a passenger carrying one, in order to qualify fully for a certificate.' . "Merely painting the windows' of a vehicle, or removing seat cushions, or removing a door, or attaching a towing device to the axle of the vehicle, does not make It a commercial vehicle, John L. Rogers, director of the division of motor transport, said. Rogers made it clear that the vehicle is merely converted for the purpose of getting more gasoline, or for the purpose of avoiding turning in idle tires under OPA regulations, and there is no bona fide transpor tation of property intended," the application for a certificate will be denied by the ODT.
